Practically every one of Wilming
ton's prominent retail merchants at
tended the illustrated lecture, "Trou
bles of a Retail Merchant, and How to
Prevent Them," given at the courthouse
last night by W. H. Farley.
Several thousand feet of motion pic
tares were run off showing how. fail
ure is almost inevitable where a mer
chant operates his business under the
old slip-shod methods; where 'no serv
ice was given and no effort made to
please a customer.
Following this picture one was shown
of an up-to-date retail business house,
where all modern methods were used
and everything ipossible was done to
please the purchaser and make him feel
that he would be welcomed back again.
While the pictures were being run
Mr. Farley gave a practical lecture on
many of the interesting pointe. He was
heard with unusual attention by the
.large gathering.
In illustrating one. oi his points, fol
lowing a statement by him that oppor
tunity knocks at a man's door more
than once, Mr. Farley took from his
purse a one-dollar federal reserve note
and asked if there was any one In the
audience who would give him eighty
cents for it. Only one of many stirred
and he went forward, and gave to Mr.
.Farley the eighty cents and received
a perfectly good one-dollar bill. t.
The illustrated lecture was given by
Mr. Farley under the auspices of the
Merchants' association. It was arranged
by Cyrus Hogue, Esq., secretary of the
association. ,
